McDonalds Rep: It's not really fair you dug up Andre the Giant to hold our large fries in your picture.
Wasn't the large fries always a ripoff? I think someone showed once that it's only marginally more fries than a small fry.
Historically, it was one of the cheaper items on the menu. In college (20 years ago) I could get a large fries for under $1. Back in the 80s/90s they were practically free. Like, loose-change free.
Also one of the tastier meal items given that they went so fast you could safely assume they'd be fresh, why the sandwich options could be sitting in the warmer for half an hour or longer depending on the speed of business.
I can't discern the size of the fries based on this picture.
I'm actually pretty OK with this. Portion sizes were generally kinda oversized, especially for not-so-healthy fastfood.
You say you're OK with it, but are you also OK with the constant price hikes for less quantity of the shitty food?
I guess ‘Large’ now stands for ‘Large Disappointment.’ Shrinkflation is getting out of hand.
Can't lie, that looks massive.
You're holding that bag very kindly. It looks like you're fondling it. I see you have a deep appreciation for McDonald's fries... I can't imagine how painful the shrinkflation must be for you!
Good. Smaller portions are what many need these days. And the high price of fast food is a great incentive to eat at home.
Mcdonalds these days suck ass.
The 2010s were great. Very nostalgic and McDonalds was one of my first and my best memories of America. Glad I got to enjoy them before they went to shit, cuz otherwise kid-me would've have the impression that "all western foods suck". (I mean it's hard to even know how to look for local non-chain "western" restaurants... since the reason I know what a McDonalds is because back in China, we also had them, but I think it tasted different... don't remember)
I mean seriously, is it just me or does like Papa Johns and Dominos and even Pizza Hut all went to shit?
P.S. I remember my mom telling about the Pizza we had in Pizza Hut in China... like she said it was expensive and it was only a very small pizza (like individual-size). I don't even remember having it in China
Glad I got to enjoy them before they went to shit, cuz otherwise kid-me would’ve have the impression that “all western foods suck”.
... This is like someone saying "Guys I thought American chocolate was awful, but have you tried this Hershey's stuff?!? It's so good!" Like I'm glad you had a good experience but... but I'm sorry that was your good experience.
Meh, pretty ok with this. America needs a serious downsize on processed food.
Here in colombia when you order any size fries from McD’s they are only a small amount. Doesn’t matter if you order large or small. Always a small amount. It makes me sad because their fries are really good even though they’re fake.
